My 1994 Semi-compact restoration/chop diary - Finished

[Underwhere]

I think I'm done. That was anticlimactic.

Tested the firing pin block tonight.
Looks like the block allows the firing pin past almost exactly the same time the hammer is released from the sear.

I would prefer it to be a hair sooner but I tested by taking a pencil and putting the eraser down into the barrel. Seems like it is making decent hits on it.

OK. Project finished.

I'm a bit tired now. I'm not sure I'm doing another CZ project like this for a while. This took a lot of effort over way too much time.

But what you have for all your work is two completely custom CZ's, personally hand finessed and pistols of beauty.

Enjoy them in good health!

Thanks. I appreciate that.

Maybe I take up 1911's

   Glad to hear that the issues have been solved Underwhere. It is interesting that the bevel took care of both issues. In lieu of encountering these issues myself this example is a valuable data point. It suggest that once the the lower corner of the Disco wing clears the Trigger Bar in DA, it will travel the rest of the way over the Trigger Bar without contacting. I was not sure that the underside of the wings would maintain clearance through the Hammer drop.

Thanks again for taking the time to bring us all along with you on this project. You ended up with some very cool and unique CZ pistols.

Wow! That is so interesting. Very cool that you posted the progress. I couldn’t stop reading until I got to the completed project. I would love to have the talent and confidence to work on my own guns at this level. Great work!
